Biographical Information. John Elway was drafted by the Kansas City Royals in the 1979 amateur draft but did not sign with the club. He was again selected in the 1981 amateur draft by the New York Yankees this time in the 2nd round.
Eventually, Colts owner Robert Irsay gave in. The Colts traded Elway to the Broncos for QB Mark Herrmann, rights to OL Chris Hinton and a first-round pick (OG Ron Solt) in the 1985 draft on May 2, 1983. Elway went on to become arguably the greatest quarterback in NFL history, but the question remains.
